Question 989105: It is shown that the population of New York City, NY is much greater than that of Irvington, NJ. Employment opportunities, malls, social activities and tourist sites in New York City are therefore more than that in Irvington. If attractiveness for New York and Irvington are therefore 1,800 and 180 respectively and if the calculated impedance of migration is known to be 1.57, based on Gravity-Based model, estimate in demands, the number of people who travel between Irvington, NJ and New York City per week.

If you had supplied the formulae that comprise the Gravity-Based model from your Urban Geography course, then this question would be appropriate for a mathematics help forum. As it stands, you are seeking expertise not likely to be located at this website.

I will give you this advice however: Determine the formula appropriate to the parameters of your problem, plug in your values, and do the arithmetic. Good luck.
